Steam is now refunding Ghost of Tsushima for people in affected countries.
Is Sony saying piracy is justified by making it not possible to buy this game? I guess if I have to.

So what Sony is saying is that I should just pirate the game since there is no legal way to buy it?

Landlords should have to pay income tax on their rental properties regardless of whether they're rented out or not.
Income tax on no income sounds fucking stupid. Just up property tax on the 3th or 4th house or apartment by a fuckton, watch everyone panic sell their shit crashing the housing market into oblivion and call it a day. Ez affordable housing.

It hasn't made headlines though. Juststopoil goes after oil terminals, car manufacturers etc pretty often but it's never reported on. The only protest that gets attention is souping painting or spraying cornflour on rocks.

YouTube’s Loaded With EV Disinformation
To be fair EVs only solve the tail pipe emission problem of cars and not like the 50 others. It's would be much better to focus on public transit and pedestrian and bike infrastructure, that solves more issues and is accessible to everyone.

Stonehenge sprayed with paint by environmental protesters
Reply in thread
In this case it's actually dyed corn starch so this would literally wash off from the first rain. And yea, this actually gets attention, when they spray painted car dealerships of some of the heaviest polluters, protested oil companies and when a guy set himself on fire to protest climate change it gets almost no coverage.

Europeans, what is something that Americans have/do that makes no sense to you?
City design and suburbs. Like if I had to drive 40 minutes to get groceries I would prefer to starve and those suburbs look like death would be the better alternative. Also driving to go for a walk, wtf?

The previous place I was a sysadmin for was 3 girls in the Linux team (including me) and one guy who was a junior sysadmin and my wife also prefers Linux so I know more girls who use Linux than guys IRL. It's a different situation online but than again I don't bother correcting people if they think I'm a guy online.

Dusk Developer David Szymanski: I'd rather pay Valve 30% and put up with their de facto monopoly than help Epic work towards their own (very obviously desired) monopoly
I get like 99% of my news about upcoming or newly released games from steam. There have been so many games I'm not even aware exist, like last week I found out Saints Row got a new game a while back but it was epic exclusive so I never knew.
Also being a Linux gamer steam has amazing support for Linux while epic has none.

A much better protection is not to be in the US when it comes to copyright.

Human Rights Watch says Israel used white phosphorus in Gaza, Lebanon
Reply in thread
They told like half of Gaza to clear out in 24 hours, that's well over a million people, it's literally impossible to accomplish that. It's to get deniability when killing civilians.

If you add pollution caused by large companies as another column here then the personal responsibility lines would not even be 1 pixel in height. Climate change is not something that can be fixed by personal change.

Helldivers 2’s Politics Appear To Be Flying Over The Heads Of Some

lemmy.world blocked the largest piracy community in all of lemmy
Turns out finding a good lemmy instance is a huge pain in the ass. I started on lemmy.ml but it was full of tankies so I moved to lemmy.world now they banned piracy so I'm on lemm.ee which gets a lot of crap from tankies still, not as bad as lemmy.ml but it's really fucking annoying. Like I'm not interested in Russian propaganda or how the soviet union's genocide was justified actually, please give the user a way to block all tankies and nazies and stop blocking things globally for everyone.

Estonia considers closing its border with Russia
Reply in thread
Estonia is a tiny country of a little over a million people and we already took on the most Ukrainian refugees per population and we currently have issues housing them. If Russians need refuge in another country they need to look elsewhere.

Helldivers 2 community manager seemingly fired after encouraging negative reviews over now-canceled PSN mandate: "I knew I was taking a risk with what I said"
The person being fired should be the dumbass who caused this whole mess from Sony's side.

If your only option to play a game is moving to a different country then I'd say it's the most justifiable. If you only have a PlayStation piracy won't really help you play PC or XBox games though so I don't see how that would help.
